Sometimes you just have to go with the feeling...and as Ray Charles has said"Ahmet was the cat, that had the feeling for the music"...so its mostly R&B tonight...cause I feel like I owe it to someone. Ahmet's House...let's make it great!

On this Fourth of July weekend in the US, I'm thinking about freedom and independence. In art, in music, freedom is essential. Perhaps what Ahmet and Atlantic did best, and more, was to create the atmosphere where artistic freedom could live and breath. For that, we are thankful on this day...in Ahmet's House.

Song List:

What'd I Say---Ray Charles
Think!---Aretha Franklin
Anyday---Derek and the Dominos
House of Freedom---Anderson and Wakeman
Equinox---John Coltrane

But Not For Me---Willie Nelson
Longing for You---Norah Jones
